They help us identify local members who are in dire need of help, and then they help to ensure that our clients have enough support in undertaking income-generation projects.

What could your gift achieve?The Sitsatsaweni Vegetable Farm is the brainchild of PDI’s local Swazi team. in 2018 the team begun growing maize and other crops on this land to provide emergency food aid for elderly people, pregnant women and malnourished children. This reduces our need to purchase maize every year, empowering a self-sustaining community and reducing reliance on donations. The produce from the garden is used mainly to support the Matsetsa soup kitchen. But we are dreaming bigger for the future of this farm...Phase two would involve building a storage structure and building an irrigation system with water pump and piping to keep the farm abundant throughout extreme climate seasons. Ideally a structure will need to be built to house the farm equipment and materials and also a room for a caretaker for the farm. The caretaker would ensure that the vegetables are not harvested by thieves.After 12 months, your generous gift would fund all of these dreams for improving the farm in Sitsatsaweni.Donate Now

PDI believes in work that supports the ongoing independence and empowerment of communities it works with. Many women are naturally entrepreneurial supports enterprising women creating and selling various handicrafts in the local market.After building the Matsetsa soup kitchen, we were excited to have many women in the community approach us to use their natural enterprising passion to create handicrafts to sell at the local market to generate an income for themselves. Soon the time spent at the soup kitchen became moments for grandmothers to sit together and create jewellery, hats, bags and grass sleeping mats. They began to sell these handicrafts in bulk to generate income. Supporting these women represents the transition from emergency food aid to community ownership and sustainable economic empowerment, by building on the success of the Matsetsa soup kitchen and established community relationships.Your precious gift could help kickstart more entrepreneurship by funding the initial materials for these handicraft projects.Donate Now

The PDI team rely on two vehicles to visit families and clients in remote communities. These vehicles deliver emergency food supplement ‘Mealie Meal’, transport supplies to the Sitsatsaweni Farm and allow the team to support clients with their Income Generation Projects.These vehicles have lasted for years, despite traversing long distances on poorly maintained, rocky roads in unpredictable weather.With one of two vehicles often out of action and when another requires frequent servicing, delivering our work in remote communities is challenged.Over six years, your generous gift could help us attain a new vehicle which will help the PDI team do the important work of serving its communities.Donate Now
